## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to evaluate a website's MCP (Model Context Protocol) readiness, which is a unique score not available from generic SEO or AEO tools. Choose this over broader AI visibility scans when your focus is on whether a site is properly set up to be discovered and used by AI agents via MCP.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed URL returns an error
- Website is unreachable or returns non-200 status
- Payment of 0.08 USDC not settled via x402 protocol results in 402 response
- Timeout if website takes too long to respond during analysis

## How this service works

AIScan audits any website for AI visibility in 60 seconds. 4 scores: AEO, GEO, Agent Readiness, MCP Readiness. Plus Brand Visibility: how often AI actually names your brand. The only scanner with MCP Readiness.

## Output
